Le clocher de l'Eglise
This is a transitory image. When I think of it, everything is transitory in our lives, even our life, although we don’t want to look at it like that and we don’t live according to this idea. When we begin projects or when we begin to move, we always want to arrive.
This is a transitory image, because I’m on the move, I’m not here and not yet there…., things are shifting, I’m trying to adapt myself to the flow. I’m floating. I doodle, although Miss Doodle has to wait for my inspiration right now.
I “grabbed” this sketch one fine morning, before going on holiday. I waited at a bus station on my way to the dentist, and thought that there is nothing like a pigeon flying into a belltower!

I bought the National Geographic when I took the train on Friday, and was fascinated by the article about evolution and a 4 million year old Human skull they found in Ethiopia. They call her ARDI (from Ardipithecu Ramidus). Hope you enjoyed your weekend:)

Shangri-La: La Gardienne de Chêvres dans Mon Pays Imaginaire - Moleskine Notebook Watercolor
This could be the beginning of a story, or an idea for a costume. It is a dreamy image of a fictional country. In this country there are no cars, computers, trains. So how do we travel, how do we communicate? We walk. We walk long distances and we write letters too. There are special messengers, they transport the mail in huge leatherbags on horseback…..
Have a nice weekend,
Andrea

RedLips-mechanical fountain place Igor Stravinsky-Paris - Watercolor Painting (40x40 cm / 15,7 x 15,7 in)
After weeks of work and reflection, my second painting of the Fountain Place Igor Stravinsky in Paris is finished. It’s a mechanical fountain, and during the summertime the water is splashing over those sculptures created by Niky de Saint Phalles and Jean Tinguely 1982.

Old Boxer in the Metro - Inkpen Drawing in my Moleskine Sketchbook
I took the metro earlier today, and there was this big old dog, he was so uncomfortable and hot, you really could see that he just tried to deal with the heat and the noise the best he could. His eyes were half-closed and he panted in a very fast rythm. His mistress put a (soft) muzzle around his snout as soon as they got in, but left it wide enough for the old guy to pant as he needed. I love dogs.
the image is “clickable”:)
What’s Miss Doodle up to?
